We’ve gathered some stories from women with partners who decided to act like they could not do the most basic of tasks.
, both parties should be able to rely on each other, but, unfortunately, that’s not at all how things turn out. A womanwith a husband who could not manage a bowl of mac and cheese, which sparked a debate on “weaponized incompetence.”
This is very similar to the approach that many kids take with various tasks, where they assume their parents will do it for them. As a child, this is more acceptable, but as an adult, it’s infuriating, so it’s perhaps not surprising why these women were soWhen our eldest was still an infant, my husband and I were arguing because I was pissed that he didn’t do any of their care without being asked.
My favorite saying always works here. “Pretend I’m dead. What would you do?” I will not allow the weaponized incompetence.I usually slice up the fresh loaf of bread I bake, but one day, my stbx came to me, “The bread isn’t sliced.” I responded with, “I trust you to figure it out.” He did NOT like that.
But he appeared to have forgotten how to write! He was writing in big, poorly drawn letters like a first grader. I was so confused, because he had normal handwriting. I literally asked if he'd hit his head. He did finally get what he wanted, I did missed him and did all the work myself. My ex once got out of the shower to ask which bottle was the shampoo. I told him it was the one that said shampoo on it, and he told me he hadn’t read them.My thoughts always go to the man who can disassemble and reassemble a car engine but can't figure out how to turn on a vacuum cleaner. When my husband moved in with me the very first week he vacuumed and did a p**s poor job of it.
We got an air fryer for Christmas a few years back. I unpacked it and my husband wanted to make something with it. I pointed to the counter and said"the quick start guide is over there" he got snippy with me and said"I don't need the quick start guide!!" Then a few moments later asked me if I knew how to preheat it.
